    40litres per 100klm is a lot.
    Haven't got a brake dragging, you would smell it I'm sure.
    Blocked air intake of filters.
    How is the performance?
    A coolant system flush and refill with a good coolant wouldn't go astray but that wont make a huge difference to the fuel.
    Slow road speed (both a/c on, mainly first and second gear...) will reduce airflow through the radiator, viscous coupling could be an issue.
    Be interesting to see what a flush and an electric fan would do.
    Ambient air temp might not help as well.
    When you say Dhaka is that Bangladesh? Had a great stay there in 1983 when backpacking.
    Good luck Tom
